Everything you needed to know about sneaker bots.
Enticing title. A bit misleading. But an interesting read, nonetheless.
I bought a bot like 5 years ago...while I was still in Silicon Valley...I figured I could get it to work as I was pretty deep in the development world and my official title was ‘Software Engineer’ (lol). I saw this one recommended on Twitter so I bought a ‘lifetime subscription’ for a couple hundred bucks and was promptly inundated with information. I set the bot up on an old machine - I figured that’d be the machine I reserved strictly for bots...it took me a couple of hours to figure out what I was doing and once I did...I tested it a few times, then planned out the first pair I was gonna cop.
I let it loose on one of the early ‘Ye days and came up empty. I tried on a few different sites and a few different shoes and came up empty. Nothing. Nothing at all. Just a blank page. Blank page after blank page. Not a single pair. I emailed support and the person was very responsive, but...still...I couldn’t get it going. I hit up some senior dev’s I knew and we all continued tinkering with it to no avail. It was just a total waste of time and money.
What’s funny is I still sometimes see ads for the bot….it appears it’s a good bot, but maybe I’m just not cut out for the bot life...
Have any of y’all tried out a bot?
